Lucido skin conditioner

OK, so I'm on business travel in Japan and my aftershave balm runs out, what's a guy to do?
Off to the local department store and see if I can get some local stuff (I don't speak a word of Japanese, mind you....). I come across a likely looking candidate. In English it says "Lucido" with "skin conditioner" below, sounds about right, the rest of the label is in Japanese, except on the back where it says "made in Japan". Cool, I'm sold, a product crafted in a foreign land, and only about $6 bucks for a 125ml glass bottle of the stuff.
What are the ingredients?
Eye of newt, wing of bat? Darned if I know, it's all Greek to me! Errr...Japanese that is...
OK, bottom line--pretty nice stuff. Looks and feels much like The Gentleman's Refinery unscented after shave balm. That stuff goes for $40 for 100ml.
Of course it seems that you have to pay for a ticket to Japan to get this stuff...
Very mild neutral scent.
Slight cooling feel.
Light and easily absorbed.
Excellent score!
